The skin is the largest and most vital sensory organ. It fulfills important functions such as the cleaning and detoxification of the body. The skin provides protection from pathogens, UV-rays, heat and cold. It participates in metabolic processes by producing Vitamin D, secreting salt, by regulating body temperature and playing an important role for the fluid balance of the body, among other things. As a mirror for the soul, the skin also demonstrates many emotions visually. Many regenerative processes of the skin occur at night in order to repair damages that emerge during the day. During the day the skin strengthens its defense mechanisms in order to counteract damaging influences.Renewal of skin cells takes place primarily around midnight. The natural protective acid mantel is built up. Absorbed vitamins and minerals are especially helpful for this process.

Sadly, the skin is exposed to many harmful influences. One example of this is intensive sunbathing. This is especially bad for our largest organ and increases the risk for skin cancer. Diverse stimulants such as alcohol and nicotine also have a negative impact on the skin and can lead to poor skin appearance. Especially regular cigarette smoking leads to fast aging. Additionally, unhealthy nutrition such as too many sweets and fast food can cause skin impurities like pimples, pustules and even acne. Your own psyche also plays a significant role in skin impurities. Stress, fear and mental imbalance often manifest negatively on the skin.

In addition to all these factors, our skin is also subject to a natural aging process. No other organ in the body makes this as apparent and visual as the skin. A change in skin already takes place starting at age 25. The skin needs more and more time for regeneration, its protective function reduces itself, and it loses the ability to bind moisture. As you age, the skin also produces less elastin and collagen, which causes firmness, elasticity and resistance to become weaker. Additionally,intensive sun exposure, fatty nutrition and mental strain speeds up the aging process. Another factor in fast aging is the age-related loss of certain hormones such as sexual hormones and DHEA.

It is important that nutritional substances are conformed to the different needs the skin encounters in a 24-hour day, as the absorption and use of certain substances by the body is only possible at certain times. Some substances work better in the evening, while others have their greatest effect in the morning. In order to reach the best possible outcome, the skin must receive the necessary substances at the correct times. Morning substances should help cell protection against oxidative stress and support the connective tissue of the skin, whereas evening substances should work to regenerate the connective tissue.The active ingredients complete and support each other according to chronobiological principles.

In order to counteract cellulite successfully you need to take chronobiology into consideration. Here we are dealing with the effect of the inner clock on the metabolism of the skin layers. On the one hand, a fat-burning activity increase can be reached with the help of phytonutrients. This lipolysis converts stored fat into free fatty acids and finally into energy. There are two options available to impact tissue changes long-term: exterior application with the help of specific crèmes, or interior application through the ingestion of specific nutritional supplement, which are administered according to the chronobiological standards as morning and evening substances.

Due to the rapid growth of hair and particularly nails on the one hand, and the different nutritional needs according to time of day on the other, the use of phytonutrients in accordance with chronobiological standards is especially important for healthy hair and nails. In the morning this requires many building substances in order to protect from hair loss and breakable nails, and in the evening lifeless hair becomes glossy. Subsequently, nails and hair receive all the necessary nutrients at the correct times and are strengthened.
